yes sir, just follow the instuctions.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
i want to try it, but i dont have the premium account for hotfile nor fileserve, and my ISP sucks when downloading files from there, except with premium account.

so i want to see if this is worth downloading yet, cause i know when it is completed, it would be great :D

does 3D fully working in this ROM? because in racht's CM7, when i use QA, when scoring the 3D, it doesnt show the graphic, only the FPS, is J's ROM the same as that?

thanks :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
3D graphics on cm7 2.3 are not yet tweaked. it gives low scores on 3D and slow graphics on games (lags).

wait still, devs are working on it. :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JasoX:
Well that is because you need to update Quadrant. It is a issue with Quadrant and Gingerbread.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
@junix, hoo thanks for your answer, of course im waiting, i just wanted to know why the 3D graphic is so low, i thought its my phone's problem :D

@jasox. well, im using QA v1.1.1, isnt that the latest version?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] karun11:
same problem on the latest version of quadrant too. The issue is with the ROM.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ojojoj:
you wrong. download quadrant from market and try;) for me works fine with this rom
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
use the latest version of quadrant. better results and much more phones to be compared,
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] anmiman:
heyy...the update zip i downloaded is corrupted..i have download it 2 time and still the same...how come???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LFSPovo:
It works for me.

Try the mirror :p
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] anmiman:
it works the third time...but after i flash it...camcorder does not work even after set to low?

And please stop OT!!! Thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ojojoj:

First read his posts!!!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cruizz:
Guys, J isn't ended the devlpment, he needs more time to fixing 2. 3. 3 x8 beside his main focus devloping x10. Please be more Patient :).

Sory for my bad english
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
I know it takes time to develop a rom and J is busy with X10 but what are J's continuation plans with the X8 project? Could you be at least kind outlining your position on future X8 rom development?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] hugerth:
SHUT THE **** UP! Sorry guys, but I hate bull**** like this! J will be doin what he want, stop crying! Maybe he has other things to do, and maybe he is not no-life developer? I am sure about that. Wait for updates and till that please shut up!

I found here many sources for kernel... For what smartphone it?

And what program use to compile from sources?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
I'm using this ROM right now but I can't find the gmail application. Any idea where I can get it?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
I think there is sources for X10 kernel because jerpelea is working on it. Our bootloader isn't yet bypassed
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jamesbond22:
I want to learn programming in Android and do more for X8. It something like C++?

jerpelea, what programs you use to edit apk files and compile from sources? What program you use to create librarys (*.so)?

I ask for it because google do not give many informations.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LuisDias:
Probably apktool.. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
those are sound endpoints for x8

handset - front speaker

farfield_cl

farfield_op - rear speaker

headphone

dhvh

none

fm_radio_active

fm_radio_mute

i need to test the others to have an complete table then implement it in our open source audio
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jamesbond22:
You mean APKEdit?

And then just edit files *.smali with use Notepad, next use compile.bat and one_click_signer.cmd?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LuisDias:
Yap.. See? You know that already.. ;)

Or you can use the aZuZu kitchen.. :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
please stop

you can find lots of guides howto compile android from source!

i am not using apktool because i dont decompile precompiled apk!

simply use google to search what you are looking for
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deani77:
Hello...

Just curious to know. In this ROM the processor been overclock or not? If not can I install overclock software?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] leaftheberry:
I personally hope that the rom will not be overclocked.. i am not really a fan of oc.

But i think that the overclock can be done on any system. Just follow the instructions on module that doixanh gave out =) it works great.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
How's 008 coming along? I'm still on 006 because the effort of backing up everything is immense :D ROM is great .. Just waiting for the camera to be fixed .. Just the camera .. Hope you fix it soon as I need it xD
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kecil26:
patience is a virtue :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] hugerth:
I have weird problem with brightness.. i installed pinch zoom module and my brightness is very low (even with max set)... any tips?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jamesbond22:
Check contents of hw_config.sh file.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
i hope version 8 will be smashing
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
I have made a small fix for su app reboot on this rom.

I hope it's ok that I share this here.If not let me know.

All credits go to nobodyatall and racht. Ramdisk and chargemon is from racht's latest rom.

Install the file from xrecovery and hope for the best.

It works fine on my X8, no rebbots when closing root explorer and titbackup.

Use at own risk.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] karun11:
will this file work for xCyanogenShakira - gingerbread - v3? or could you please create it for that ROM too?

thanks :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sawari:
Tested on xCyanogenShakira - gingerbread - v3, yes no reboot for root explorer but wifi error. So waiting for someone to recreate it for xCyanogenShakira!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fw3:
advise me =)

Hello to everyone especially to tugas:p, I love this site, since to around 4 years when I had my first WM. Now I have a X8 and the SE is not willing to make friends just think about selling.

I'm seriously thinking about using this rom, seems more stable and advanced but I do not understand about programming so tell me sincerely advise to install this rom or if is better wait some time because I want more is be able to install applications in memory card and get away from bugs in rom of the SE.

sorry for the English.:confused:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kecil26:
its better to wait for 008 :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
How do you make toasts with a toothbrush ?

This is the same type of question.

You don't compile it with any windoze, this is linux OS, so u need linux/unix to compile it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mdrizal:

guys.. please help.. somehow my ringer volume (that drop to 50%) just drop all and i've to level it high back every 5 mins.. i think there something problem with the roms or setting? did anybody feel the same?

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] exonn:
Great news... Looking forward to it
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] l373872514:
Great news！Can't to wait
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Asycid:
I'm sorry if anyone asked that before me, there are lot of posts in this thread, and I've read about 14 pages, but can't find the answer:

-In this ROM with a 3rd party software, can the camera take 3MP photos and 640 videos (I mean with not the built-in camera-photo apps)?

-What are the other (smaller or bigger) bugs of this ROM (I know FM is not working.)?

-What is the battery lifespan? Longer, equal, or shorter than the official 2.1?

I'm really considering to be this ROM the first Custom rom on my X8, it seems much less bug in it than the other gingerbreads.

I'll really appreciate your patience. Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] exonn:
LGcamera pro takes only low rez pictures.

BT is not workin (at least for me and some others)

Angrybirds somtimes FC

minor browsing, som calls and texts - 48 hrs.

Hope the BT will work correctly in 008
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LFSPovo:
Still waiting for the 008 release... :(

I hope J finds some time to fix the non-working features as well as improve the ROM! :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:

Why IT all the way unmount SD-card ?

Reason if EXT-partition at all or my EXT2 ?

If i convert Ext2 to Ext3\4 - will it fix unmount ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skyboyextreme:
will the camera work with 3mp and high video quality in the next build ? i would really like to know why all the gingerbread roms have problems with the camera? sorry if this question was asked before....
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
You can try to convert it. But I think that solution is delete ext partition and create only one FAT or FAT 32 partition
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
my device has ~150Mbof internal ram

If i delete ext - where to store 300Mb of applications ?

If it store to FAT - system works very-very slow with fat.

Test this on 2.2 (have delete ext) - going back to use EXT.

Maybe there is some working solution to keep old EXT to test this ROM?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kecil26:
coz of its library@driver..2.3 was not mean for x8 device..so J have to rewrite it to make it compatible with x8 hardware..and maybe a cracked bootloader to load the library@driver..thats what i noe :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] pristis:
Google Maps, Earth, Docs problem

Hello,

Great ROM, but can't download Google Maps, Earth, Docs and maby sometihing else.

I'm with CM7_RC4_X8_007 but Market don't want to install google programs.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
x8 was released with 2.1

2.1 camera library can be used on 2.1 roms just by copying 4 files

2.1.camera library can be used on 2.2 roms by copying 4 files and apliing an patch

2.1 camera can not be used on 2.3 roms

for 2.3 roms you have to compile camera from sources and sources are incomplete !

unless se releases 2.3 rom for x8 or we will succed writing the sources the camera will be broken

wo kernel bypass is hard because camera interface in kernel is not trowing debug messages so we can not debug camera

we can just try to guess the parameters

hope this will stop this spam about camera
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wailoon:
How to install this ROM?

Hi i have download the rom, but it is in RAR format.

in xRecovery i can only see ZIP format files, i tried to unrar the file and put in ZIP file.

But xRecovery are not able to install (no error message).

Please advice.

thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sanefirst:
:rolleyes:

One of the files inside this RAR is a ZIP file. All you have to do is flash the zip file. No need to repack anything.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
You need to extract update.zip and in xrecovery "install cutom zip" or "install update zip"
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wailoon:
should i copy both files to same folder and choose either install custom rom/ install update??

i notice update.zip is larger than gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip...

how about LiveWallpapers.zip?? how should i use this??
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wailoon:
Hi,

I need to use the tethering function (wifi hotspot) but i know that this kernel is not supported.

May I know what should I do/install to enable this function in my phone??
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] diegoxcore12:
try it

https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wailoon:
Actually I tried this before I raise this question.

I got error message said that "kernel does not have all necessary features for running this application. "

any idea??
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] treebill:
barnacle wifi tether works on the x8, give it a try.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wailoon:
Hi,

barnacle wifi tether is working for me.

thanks... :)

but the machine keep restart by itself. not sure why... but since this is not the main phone i use, i can still survive with this problem. hope 008 won't have this problem ... :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skyboyextreme:
Ok thanks for this detailed explanation and keep up your good work :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sanefirst:
That happens due to "SU reboot bug". Search for a fix - it was posted somewhere in this thread.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rimzyriza:
hi jerpelea, when is it likely that the stable release for cm7 is released?

Thank you...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AntwnhsAnt:
what are the 4 files that we need to get the camera work??

I've seen the libcamera.so, libcamera_client.so and libcameraservise.so but what's the 4th??
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
4 files - it is for 2.2 (not for 2.3)

on 2.2 - it works well - see MiniCM or Floyo (they have fully working camera)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AntwnhsAnt:
I want them to copy on other ROMs(2.3.4) to get the camera work at least VGA..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] LG_fuad92:
So it means there're two things left to do? What about dualtouch?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] WARR10r:
just read module-man's message at top of his topic

so be happy, we have pinch2zoom, thx to doixanh. and it seems that we wont get anything else
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeanBoro:
i cant use my SDCard it keeps saying safe to remove :/
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
This is because EXT partition on SDCARD.

It have been fixed in XGin ROM.

Waiting for J to fix it too.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rimzyriza:
please can anyone tell me when a stable version of cm7 is likely to be released for the x8?

and jerpelea you can stop your work on gingerbread for x10 because it is getting an official update.

please focus on the x8 development.

Thank you.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bogdan_mihai554:
Guys is there any progress on this rom, cuz i haven't seen progress on it since at least an month
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sincan01:
J is stop his development for x8
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
how do you know that?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] thetrisatria:
he put his full attention in X10 dev, so dream on :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CaptainZap:
Well maybe he'll return after he finishes his job with the X10, but I don't know why he won't do X8 first... X10 will receive full update from S.E. later this year.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
we have not stoped the development on x8 but unless we have something stable we will not release

for now we are testing
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rimzyriza:
People racht is doing very well maintaining the x8 roms. He updates it nearly all the time. Seems to me that he is focusing so much on the X8.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
J, sources in github is still for 2.3.3? not 2.3.4?

how much is the difference? because i have CM7 2.3.4 source in my computer, i want to compile my ROM myself. Thanks
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
you can use device folder from git for 2.3.4
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
small progress

cm7.1 rc0 is almost ready

we are triing to stabilize wifi

the rest is working
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
useless info for now !
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] XperianPro:
Good news. :-)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
how about bootloader? :D

are u interested in bypassing bootloader J?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
at this stage of the project it is not planed to work on bootloaders

there are to many devices that needs fixes and bughunting
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 7OH:
Is that mean that camera work (not only VGA) ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
after many hours of wifi fixing we have reached an end :d

we need to recompile wifi driver module to match standard tiwlan from cm tree

this way we are prepared to merge x8 into cm without breaking other devices

we will try to make this ASAP

in the mean time we will release an cm7.1 rom j008 wo WIFI for you to play with

please test BT on as many devices as you can

thanks
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
rom uploaded
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
thanks J for the rom but can you list a changelog what is included in your rom ?

x8gesture,x8uv,x8oc and mddi ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
J, how do i sync the git? i already download cm7 source (2.3.4), and freexperia source (still 2.3.3), i dont want to download the tar.gz file again.

thanks, btw, if i dont change something in vendor, i cannot do lunch, why is that?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
beacuse x8 device is incompelte on git and breaks cm tree

we are working on it
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
none of those

purpose of this rom for now is DEVELOPMENT
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
noted and thanks for the fast reply:)
